About this ebook

The third book in an exciting and inspiring new series from national bestselling author ReShonda Tate Billingsley

Only one girl will be chosen....

In the year since Camille, Alexis, Jasmine, and Angel joined Rachel Jackson's church youth group, the four best friends have bonded over boys, pitched in on community projects, and shared their deepest secrets. There's nothing they don't know about each other -- or is there? When a special guest arrives at Rachel's group and announces auditions for a television talk show, the girls will come to know a side of each other they never knew existed. And they may not like what they see.

Will the four friends become enemies?

The race to find the perfect host for KRCP's Teen Talks is heating up -- the competition is fierce, and so are the lies the girlfriends tell about each other in order to win the coveted spot. But more painful than any lies they can concoct is the cold, hard truth: none of them will reach their ultimate dreams if cutting each other down is how they choose to get ahead. Is winning a place in the spotlight worth losing their friendship?

Includes a reader's group guide!

    This book is about a 4 friends and them have the chance of a life time to be able to be on tv for their very own show. They end up in a competition for the job and it almost ends their friendship. When one of the friends is said to be hurt they come together as friends and try to get the friendship back to the way it used to be. They end up adding a friend to their group. Alexis is going through a divorce and a break up from jasmines brother. Camille used her boyfriend to pull some strings to get her the job. Her ex boyfriend comes back and beats up her white boyfriend , which they end up breaking up anyway. I like this book because it deals with the issue if friendship and that happens alot when you are in school.
